So the reed flower stalk is turning in to hot frog real-estate. Three there today, including a very tiny one IN the flower bloom section.

We've had a few storms recently, but despite some of the reeds being bent over, there's still a good collection of #EasternDwarfTreeFrog s.
I counted 7 on one reed this morning, and 12 in total.

I stopped to count the frogs this morning, and there was an extremely tiny one (about 1cm long).
These two shots are taken at the same distance (approx 2.9m away) and cropped the same amount. The one on the left is the tiny tiny frog, and the right hand one is a regular sized Dwarf Tree Frog (approximately 3cm long).

It was slightly warmer this morning on campus (12ºC) so some of the frogs were out (they tend not to come out when it's colder than that).
Here's one of the two I found (the other was in a bad spot, photographically).

I went back this afternoon via the spot the tiny frogs were this morning and there were two out in the open.
So here's some more Tiny Frog Thursday for you.

My morning was improved one-hundred-fold by the discovery of this tiny Eastern Dwarf Treefrog on a citrus fruit.
It was no bigger than a beetle, and almost the same colour as the unripe fruit.
